PRESENT BANKING SCENARIO
Indian Banking – towards Global Best Practices
Indian Financial Sector has witnessed unprecedented growth in the last decade and we believe the next 10 years will be as exciting. The industry has seen numerous innovations and several Indian Banks have successfully leveraged technology at globally efficient levels. However, the market is going to see increasing competition from global financial players and non-banking attackers. The market will see increasing segmentation and rising focus on customer service.
Delivering superior customer experience
The low level of customer loyalty in India across banking products like credit cards and housing loans is becoming a big cause of concern for leading players. Further, intensifying levels of competition is resulting in significant customer churn and rising costs which continue to rapidly erode overall profitability. To effectively address these challenges, it becomes critical to first understand basic customer behavior, needs and preferences. How do players in the Indian banking sector compare globally on customer experience? What can the banking industry do better to give customers a superior experience.
Driving operational and IT effectiveness.
In to-day’s challenging economic environment with burgeoning cost pressures, players are increasingly recognizing the importance of achieving operational excellence and cost efficiency. Undoubtedly, in order to accomplish this effectively, it is critical to build strong capabilities in IT and operations processes. How effectively and efficiently are we utilizing our IT resources? What major IT management levers should banks focus on? How should banks prioritize their portfolio of IT initiatives?
Building a high performing organization
CEOs and their top management teams are increasingly finding that many of the big strategic and operational questions on their plate involve leadership, talent and the broader organization. In today’s unprecedented talent crunch, the financial services industry is grappling with developing the leadership and talent. What should players do to ensure that it has the organizational alignment against key
priorities? How do organizations build execution capability? How can organization create capacity that is critical to sustained success?
Managing capital and risk
Capital efficiency is a core imperative for the banking sector and will increasingly come into focus given numerous growth opportunities which will drive need for capital. Most banks are in need of capital for growth. Banks which are unable to raise capital due to either performance issues or regulatory issues, will not be able to participate in the growth opportunities. Further with volatile markets and high employee turnover, it gets critical to effectively contain credit risk, market risk and operational risks. In addition, cost of compliance oversight in today’s environment are very high. Banks need to tap the high growth opportunities while ensuring capital efficiency, ensuring compliance and managing risk. Basel II will help the high performing banks on this front to manage capital better, while the weaker banks will face increased pressure. Is Indian banking sector is ready for this? What steps do individual banks need to take on capital management, compliance and risk?
BANK’S CORE STRENGTH
A large public sector bank with modern and contemporary personality Uninterrupted Record of profit making. Strong domestic presence throughout the country Bank’s operation extended in 25 countries Providing financial services to over 35 million customers across globe Baroda SUN- is a well accepted and recognized brand of Indian
Banking Industry Bank the common values of Honesty, Simplicity, Dedication and commitment Bank’s rapid and significant Technology progression A Prudentially strong bank – First PSB to have received Rating for Corporate
Governance – GAGR –2 Steady Movement towards International Best Practices – Preparing financials under
USGAP Bank’s presence in all leading financial centres of the world like London, Brussels, New
York, Bhamas, Dubai, Hong Kong and Singapore. Bank’s international operations account for 22% of Bank’s global business and around
one third of its net profits.
BANK’S MAJOR WEAKNESSES
o Net Interest Margin (NIM) remains under stress.
o Cost-income Ratio though coming down is still high .
o Fee based income ratio to total income is very low.
o Market share in both deposits and advances not of desired level
o Large amount locked up in Prudential write off.
o Return on Average Assets (ROAA) and Return on Equity (ROE) remains lower.
Loan System
Depending on predefined parameters setup in the loan system by the bank management, all loan payments are tracked daily and potential NPAs are reported. This gives bank staff adequate advance information to take corrective action before the missed payments actually turn into a classified NPA
With authorized access, any staff working in any branch around the country should be able to retrieve the customer loan information on his terminal and help the customer do a financial transaction. These financial transactions are automatically sent to the bank’s General Ledger and they update the appropriate credits and debits in the subsidiary ledgers in the GL
Major products under Farm Sector

I suggest to farmer amla cultivation
High Density Amla
1. Introduction
Aonla (Emblica officinalis) is very hardy, prolific bearer and highly remunerative even without much after care. Aonla is the richest known natural source of vitamin. Its juice contains 20 times as much vitamin C as orange juice. Aonla is known for its pharmaceutical properties.
It is a wonder herb and one of the precious gifts of nature to man. It is the best of all acid fruits and most useful for health and body rejuvenation and prevents aging. It's mineral and vitamin contents include calcium, phosphorus, iron, carotene, thiamine, riboflavin and to vitamin C. Its calorific value is 58. 100 g of fruit provides 470 to 680 mg of vitamin C. The dehydrated berry provides 2428 to 3470 mg of vitamin C per 100 g.
It is largely cultivated in Uttar Pradesh (Azamgarh, Pratapgarh, Varanasi and Barelli districts), Gujarat, Maharashtra and Karnataka. In view of its diverse uses, its cultivation is increasing fast and the crop is becoming popular with the orchardists.
2. Uses
The use of aonla in such ayurvedic preparations as Chyavanprash, Triphala and Ashokrishta is age-old. The fruits can be made into preserves, sauce, dried chips, tablets, jellies, pickles, toffee, powder etc. It is also used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products such as hair oil, shampoos, chavanprash, etc. The ascorbic acid and other constituents are well retained even in dried form of amla fruits.
It boosts immune-system; The most important ingredient of century-old Ayurvedic medicines; fresh fruits rich in vitamin C are good live tonic, refrigerant, cooling, blood purifier and anti-
diabetic; useful in jaundice, anemia, heart complaints, dyspepsia and indigestion; seeds used to treat diabetes, asthma, bronchitis and stomach disorders.
Medical Action: Aonla is good for almost everyone on a regular basis. It reduces or eliminates the risk of environmental pollutants, normalizes cholesterol, reduces unwanted fat, cures ulcers, prevents cancer, detoxifies the body, regulates digestion, has inhibiting effects against the HIV virus, promotes metabolic function and can produce these results in a dried, natural, unprocessed form. The only thing that could possibly be better than amla for a daily herbal supplement is the Triphala formula, of which aonla constitutes one third.
3. Varieties
There has been no standardisation of varieties of aonla and they are mostly known on the basis of size, colour and also names of places. The important varieties are Banarasi, Deshi, Chakaiya, etc. of which Banarasi is the most important variety for commercial purpose. The fruits are fairly large and very good for making preserves. It is an early bearer having good keeping quality. Another important variety is Anand - 2 grown in Gujarat.
4. Climate
It is found growing in different states up to elevation of 1,500 meters from sea level. It is sub-tropical fruit but can be cultivated successfully in tropical climate as well. The plant is not very much influenced either by hot wind or frost. The mature trees can tolerate temperature as high as 460 deg.
5. Soil
The tree could be raised even on marginal lands and is capable of withstanding adverse conditions. Amla can be grown in light as well as heavy soils, however, well drained fertile soils are preferred. The plants adapt to dry regions and can also tolerate moderately alkaline soils.
6. Propagation
Shield budding is commercially followed for propagation. Proper selection of mother plant is very critical for commercial cultivation on large scale. The mother plant should be highly fruitful of known variety and the bud should be taken from the branch with good number of female flowers otherwise the plant will be unfruitful.
7. Planting
Healthy budded plants are planted during rainy season. In dry areas where mortality after transplanting is very high, the seedling root stocks can be raised in situ for budding with superior variety.
8. Spacing and Plant Population
Pits of about 0.75 cum should be dug during May-June at a distance of 7 m x 7 m accommodating 204 plants in one ha.
9. Orchard Establishment and Care
As the branches of aonla often break off carrying heavy crop load the plant should be trained to develop a low headed one. The framework should be developed by encouraging growth of 4-6 well spaced branches with fairly wide angle. The pruning of the bearing plants can be done after the harvest of the crop every year.
10. Irrigation
Aonla plants hardly require any irrigation except during the spells of dry period. The young plants require water in summer at fortnightly intervals till they are firmly established. Watering of mature bearing plants is also necessary for better fruit development and to arrest fruit drop.
11. Plant Protection
There are no major pests and diseases affecting aonla. The major ones are bark eating caterpillar among pests and aonla rust among the diseases. Spraying with neem oil and some herbal preparations is recommended.
12. Harvesting
The budded plants used in commercial cultivation start bearing from the fourth year onwards. Amla can give economic yields for around 25 years.
13. Yield
A full grown aonla plant can yield up to 200 kg fruits per year. The productivity levels could touch a high of20 MT per ha from the seventh year of planting. Average yield can be around 100 kg per tree.
14. Market
Aonla has in recent years gained prominence as a crop of economic importance because of its therapeutic properties. Aonla fruits can be processed into various products such as pickle, chutney, sauce, preserve, syrup, powder and digestive chewing nuts.
Average market price is Rs. 6 per kg.
The fruit is mainly marketed in Mumbai, Amritsar, Kolkata, Delhi, Hydrebad and Patna markets. Pratapgarh near Faizabad in UP contributes to nearly 80 per cent of the total amla production in
the country. The fruit from Tamil Nadu finds its way to the Mumbai market, apart from being marketed at Chennai, Bangalore and Kochi. At present there is a mismatch in the demand-supply chain of aonla.
15. Financial Viability
The viability of plantation is worked out based on the economic life of plant. The BCR and NPW are found to be 1.3, 10,652 respectively. The Internal Rate of . Return on 10 year basis is worked out as above 23% s_owing a high degree of financial viability.
16. Repayment Schedule
Repayment schedule is worked out on the basis of 90% of loan amount at 12% interest rate. As the income from 1st 6 years is enough to make repayments, it is suggested to provide the grace period of 6 years for principal amount. Repayment may be allowed from 7th year in graded installments, which will be repaid fully by the end of tenth year.
17. Refinance Assistance
As the scheme will be implemented on wastelands the financial institutions will be eligible to avail 100% refinance at interest rate of 5.50% p.a.
18. Margin Money
Margin money will be decided as per borrowers' category, which may vary from 5 to 25% (i.e. from small farmers to corporate borrowers).
19. Security
Security against bank loan will be charged as per rule specified by RBI from time to time. The hypothecation of standing crop will however be the part of security.
20. Insurance Coverage
The crop may be insured against damage by natural 'calamities for which the financing bank may stipulate the special terms and conditions as per rule of General Insurance Company.

LOAN DESIGN FOR JATROFA CULTIVATION Introduction
NABARD, as an apex institution with regard to policy, planning and operation in the field of agriculture and rural credit, is actively involved in extending credit support for renewable energy development in rural areas along with other financial institutions. Development of wastelands through energy plantations, biodiesel crops / tree borne oilseeds is identified as a thrust area for which NABARD is extending 100% refinance to banks at concessional rate of interest.
Among the many species, which can yield oil as a source of energy in the form of biodiesel, Jatropha curcas has been found most suitable due to its various favourable attributes like hardy nature, short gestation period, high oil recovery and quality of oil, etc. It can be planted on degraded lands through Joint Forest Management (JFM), farmer’s field boundaries, fallow lands and as agro forestry crop.
Description Jatropha curcas belongs to the family Euphorbiaceae and is thus closely related to other important cultivated plants like rubber, castor etc. It is believed to be a native of South America and Africa but later spread to other continents of the world by the Portuguese settlers. The Arabs have been using this plant for medicinal purpose. Today it is found in almost all the tropical and sub tropical regions of the world.
There are more than 200 names for it all over the world, which indicates its significance to man, and the various possibilities of its use. In India, Jatropha curcas is found in almost all the states and is generally grown as a live fence for protection of agricultural fields from damage by livestock as it is not eaten by cattle or goat.
BOTANICAL FEATURES
It is a small tree or shrub with smooth gray bark, which exudes a whitish colored, water, latex when cut. Normally, it grows between three and five meters in height, but can attain a height of up to eight or ten meters under favourable conditions. Leaves
It has large green to pale-green leaves, alternate to sub-opposite, three-to-five lobed with spiral phyllotaxis.
Flowers
The petiole length ranges between 6-23 mm. The inflorescence is formed in the leaf axil. Flowers are formed terminally, individually, with female flower usually slightly larger and occur in the hot seasons. In conditions where continuous growth occurs, an unbalance of pistillate or staminate flower production results in a higher number of female flowers.
Fruits
Fruits are produced in winter when the shrub is leafless, or it may produce several crops during the year if soil moisture is good and temperatures are sufficiently high. Each inflorescence yields a bunch of approximately 10 or more ovoid fruits. A three, bi-valved cocci is formed after the seeds mature.
Seeds
The seeds become mature when the capsule changes from green to yellow, after two to four months from fertilization. The blackish, thin shelled seeds are oblong and resemble small castor seeds.
Ecological Requirements
Jatropha curcas grows almost anywhere- even on gravely, sandy and saline soils. It can thrive on the poorest stony soil. It can grow even in the crevices of rocks. The leaves shed during the winter months form mulch around the base of the plant. The organic matter from shed leaves enhances earthworm activity in the soil around the root-zone of the plants, which improves the fertility of the soil.
Regarding climate, Jatropha curcas is found in the tropics and subtropics and likes heat, although it does well even in lower temperatures and can withstand a light frost. Its water requirement is extremely low and it can stand long periods of drought by shedding most of its leaves to reduce transpiration loss. Jatropha is also suitable for preventing soil erosion and shifting of sand dunes. Cultivation practices
It can be easily propagated on massive scale by direct seeding as well as planting stem cuttings. Hot and humid weather is preferred for good germination of seed. Plants bear fruits in the beginning of winter. Approximately 5-6 kgs. of seed is adequate to raise one hectare of plantation. The spacing maintained is about 2m x 2m and for high density planting 2m x 1m distance can be recommended.
Seeds or cuttings can be directly planted in the main field. Some times the seedlings are grown in poly bags and then transplanted in the main field. The land should be ploughed once or twice depending upon the nature of soil. In direct planting system the seed/cuttings should be planted in the main field with onset of monsoon at a spacing indicated above. Apart from organic manure, mixtures, fertilizers containing NPK should be applied near the planting hole. To keep the land free from weeds in the initial stage, 3-4 hand weedings are necessary; it does not require supplementary irrigation. However, the approximate yield of 1200 kg seed per hectare may be obtained from irrigated plantations in comparison to 750 kg seed (per hectare) from rainfed plantations. This is expected from 3rd year onwards. The economic life of the plant is about 35-40 years. Jatropha oil is extracted by hydraulic press method after grinding and steaming of the seed.
Unit cost
The cost of cultivation of Jatropha curcas in one hectare at an espacement of 3m X 2m i.e., 1666 plants per ha has been worked out at Rs.25,826/- per ha. (unirrigated condition). The details of various items of expenditure are viz. land preparation, digging of pits, plant and material, manure and fertilizer, inter culture, watering and plant protection etc. The unit cost break up of Jatropha curcas is as follows:

Commercial uses of the Plant The increasing gap between demand and supply of fuel wood leads to fast depletion of forest cover. There is need to search for alternative source of energy derived from non-wood sources. For this purpose high density plantation of Jatropha, as an energy crop, may provide energy on regular basis annually for a period of 40-45 years without replanting, unlike other fuel wood crops. With suitable technology, jatropha could possibly be used as furnace fuel to facilitate electricity generation in a decentralized manner and at a lower cost as compared to the existing power generation system, which requires massive infrastructure for distribution of power. Besides the above, the following additional benefits can also be expected:
a) Jatropha oil is a potential substitute for diesel providing the country cheap and renewable source of energy for transport & power and can effect sizeable savings on foreign exchange.
b)Jatropha oil has a very high saponification value and is being extensively used for soap making, lubricants and candles. The protein content in Jatropha oil cake may be used as a raw material for plastic and synthetic fibre.
c) Jatropha plant has high medicinal value. The latex of Jatropha curcas contains an alkaloid known as Jatrophine, which is used in medicines.
d) Jatropha oil cake is rich in nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium and can be used as organic manure.
e)Revegetation of barren and denuded hills with Jatropha plants combats environmental pollution.
Thus, owing to its multiple uses, simple and cost effective technology, with or without irrigation makes it promising and profitable agro forestry crop ensuring optimum utilisation of land and manpower. It is a crop with low capital investment, short gestation period, long productive period and unlimited employment potential in rural areas.
Yield & Economics
The plant starts giving yield from the third year onwards and the benefits increase over the years and stabilizes in the 8th year. In the financial analysis with the above parameters of the investment cost & yields, the BCR & IRR works
out to 1.19 & 19.41% respectively.
Repayment of Loan
A moratorium of four years for repayment of principal and two years for payment of interest may be allowed.
Beneficiaries Contribution / Margin Money / Down Payment
The beneficiaries may contribute towards down payment ranging from 5 to 25% depending upon their category, i.e., small and other farmers in accordance with NABARD’s norms. Beneficiary’s own labour can also be taken as his contribution towards the margin money requirement.
Quantum of Refinance
The loans extended by the banks to individual farmers and / or groups of individuals such as co-operatives under Wasteland development projects are eligible for refinance from NABARD to the extent of 100% of Bank loan.
Rate of Interest
The rate of interest on refinance from NABARD will be as per the circulars issued by NABARD from time to time. The rate of interest to be charged to the ultimate borrowers would be decided by the financing banks. However for working out the financial viability and bankability of the model project we have assumed the rate of interest as 12%.
